Acknowledgments During the two years or so that this book has been in preparation, Ken Gatland and I have been fortunate to receive help and advice from many people associated with space technology throughout the world. We thank everyone who has answered our requests for pictures and information so patiently, and would particularly like to express our gratitude to Bill Baker and Sadie Alford of the Novosti Press Agency, London (for pictures and information about Soviet space activities); L.J. Carter, Executive Secretary of the British Interplanetary Society (for the use of original material from BIS archives); Robert Conquest (for permission to quote from "For The 1956 Opposition of Mars"); F.C. Durant, III, of the National Air and Space Museum, Washington, DC (for archive material relating to Dr. Robert Goddard); Rolf Engel (for information about pre-war and wartime German rocket history); Doreen Gatland (for assistance in compiling rocket data); Mike Hammond of RAE, Farnborough (for explaining the finer points of remote Earth-sensing); DipI-Ing R. Heinrich of the Deutsche Museum, Munich (for information about early German rocketry); Professor Hermann Oberth (for elucidating design features of his Modell В rocket); Louise Parks (for translating Soviet texts); Arthur Rudolph (for explaining the design and applications of his rocket engine); and Mitchell Sharpe (for assistance in obtaining information on pre-war German rocket developments).
A book of this nature relies to a great extent on the quality of its pictures for its overall impact. In this connection, we would like to thank Mike Badrocke for his painstaking work in the preparation of most of the artwork, and the many aerospace companies and space research institutes that have supplied transparencies, diagrams and charts, and whose pictures are credited on page 289. We are especially grateful to Les Gaver and his colleagues in the Audio-Visual Department at NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC, who supplied a superb selection of photographs. The assistance of David Baker, Theo Pirard, David Skinner and Charles Vlck was invaluable in the complex task of compiling the table of launch vehicle data, and preparing the maps.

I would finally like to thank Richard O'Neill and Mike Wilson for their editorial assistance, and Stuart Craik for compiling the index.
